14400×10800 pixel – error in AE ?
Hello friends !
I need to work on an image with the final resolution from 14400×10800 pixel.
I can create a new composition with that resolution, but after importing a photoshop file, and dragging that file onto my canvas, I get the Error message: 14400×10800 frame buffer
Hmm, what does it mean ?
Is After Effect Limited in the resolution ?The reason why I need to work in such a high resolution, is because the client need that for super print posters.
And I am using AE with some nice plugins, I can’t use in Photoshop.Thx for every little help.

Wow. Dude. What can I say.
Dude!
I guess that AE has it’s limits, but I rather think that it’s RAM that you’re missing. After Effects manages memory different than Photoshop, so if you think you have enough RAM, because it works in Photoshop ir doesn’t mean it will work in AE.
The only thing that comes to my mind is to instantly create a proxy after importing this huuuuge file into AE. Make it one third of the size or less. After all… you’ll need to zoom out to work on the file so why process all those pixels.
After applying the effects add the comp to the render queue, save the file but don’t render. Make sure that the render settings will use the original footage, not the proxy, and that the final resolution is ok.
after saving the file quit AE… and restart your machine 😉
than use the command line to render the comp without loading AE interface and stuff…to use the AE renderer (command line interface) navigate to your AE installation folder (the same place where AfterFX.exe sits), open up the console by doing Start > Run > cmd, and type this “aerender -project X:\project_1.aep”
maybe, MAYBE this will help.
and what is that effect that you cannot create in Photoshop anyway? i simply think of one like that.
cheers

In your preferences under Memory & Cache try decreasing the Max RAM cache size and choose Enable Disk Cache option. Try to increase the Max memory usage. Try around with both values.
Bear in mind that this file is 10 times larger than HD, and it still require some heavy horsepower to tackle HD. -
We’ve talked about this a lot in the forum – This is a RAM issue.
Split your image up in photoshop into smaller pieces, and then bring in the individual pieces and then arrange them, and then parent them to a Null. Use the null to control the position, rotation…etc.

well, the reason why I would like to use AE, is the great plugin Shine from Trapcode, it’s really perfect, and I’ve never could see such a similar effect made with Photoshop.
Hmm, or can we reach the same result in Photoshop too ?
thx a lot…
